Weekly competition 2009-01

wow thanks Ville. I was searching for somthing just like that.

I did it some more snaking on my lunch break and just got a 5.38. Not bad for my second day of snaking eh? would put me at 31 on that list. Anyway, lets not clog the thread any more with snake talk.
 
2x2x2: 7.63, (DNF), 7.79, (7.37), 7.67 = 7.70
Comment: VERY bad.
3x3x3: (19.57), (25.12), 20.07, 24.29, 24.59, = 22.98
4x4x4: 1:48.54 (P), 1:42.41 (P), (1:37.49 (O)), 1:38.44 (OP), (1:51.06 (OP)) = 1:43.13
Comment: Parity rage?
3x3x3 OH: 50.90, 44.12, (58.14), (41.64), 56.92 =50.65
Comment: New PB single. I broke it 4 times this year now...

Clock (BLD): 5:44.66, 4:05.03, DNF, 4:25.48 , DNF = DNF
Comment: The last one was off by one edge clock. It was an easy scramble so I rushed. The third one was a mess.

2x2: (4.31), 5.18, 4.97, 5.31, (5.78) = 5.15
Good. No warm-up, but my cube seemed to co-operate.

3x3: (14.41), (15.70), 15.49, 15.67, 14.64 = 15.26
Well, I suppose consistency is no bad thing.

4x4:


Sq-1: (55.58 P), 53.08, 45.52, 45.59 P, (40.08) = 48.06
Awesome. New PB average. I will get the UK NR ;)

bad, i'm nothing great but usually manage about 10 seconds faster.

3x3:32.53, 32.50, (30.03), (35.40), 32.52 = 32.52
quite amazed by my 'grouping'. i'm hoping to be regularly sub30 soon ish.
 
Peter V:

2x2x2: 13.41, 12.12, 14.55, (11.17), (14.60) = 13.36 avg.
Comment: Good average for me.

3x3x3: (36.59), 35.82, (27.63), 32.98, 33.06 = 33.95 avg.
Comment: Normal average for me, right now.

4x4x4: (3:13.13 (P)), 3:17.86 (P), 3:21.49 (OP), 3:21.25 (OP), (DNF) = 3:20.20 avg.
Comment: First ever 4x4 average. Last solve I messed up the orientation parity alg after an already slow solve so I just put the cube down.

Magic: 1.52, 1.97, (2.24), 1.49, (1.48) = 1.66 avg.
Comment: I haven't been practicing this puzzle, and it shows.

Absolutely ok, my best avg in comp is 3:59.34. (ones i also hit a 4.00.00 avg!)

Magic
1.36 – 1.40 – DNF – 1.53 – 3.41(+2) = 2.03
Bad..

Master Magic
4.59 – 5.84 – 5.21 – 5.96 – 6.30 = 5.67
Bad..
 
7x7x7: 7:21.59 6:38.61 6:52.86 6:29.90 7:06.88 = 6:52.78
Must. Beat. Arnaud.

Must. Kick. Stefan hiney ;)

(Are we being competitive here, or are we threatening with violence?)

I am doing the weekly right now, but it takes me a "little" longer because I am doing 7 warm-up solves before the normal 5 solves. I am going to start 6x6x6 now (should take about 1h15) and will do 7x7x7 immediately after. I am soooo hoping for a 6:52.77 average of 5 :D
 
3x3x3:
(25.61) 30.58 (34.11) 32.55 32.81 = 31.98

3x3x3 Blindfolded:
5:02.64 (2:58), 5:04.25 (3:33) 5:17.74 (3.25) = 5:02.64
memo slower than usual (I guess it's the beer yesterday night)
 
Ha! Victory by almost four seconds!

... which is about 1 percent. I must say that having your times as a target was very motivating. Maybe this will motivate you on 6x6x6?

All times: 4:44.47 4:53.77 4:39.25 5:08.15 4:47.27 4:58.53 4:57.91 4:30.57 4:24.02 4:56.36 5:39.97 4:50.21

10/12: = 4:50.65
5/7: 4:52.39
3/5: 4:45.71

On both 6x6x6 and 7x7x7 solve nr. 11 was the worst. I think this has a lot to do with extra popping and screw-ups because of nerves/stress.
